Event Details

Hello BEST folks!

This invite is for an online introduction and training session covering the MathWorks Simulink programming software that will be available to all teams in 2012. This training, provided by MathWorks, is intended for BEST hub personnel and team members, including teachers and mentors. It will introduce you to the benefits of using Simulink and get you familiar with using the software to program the BEST robots.

Outline for this session:

- Intro to Simulink and Simulink software for VEX

- More on Simulink software support for VEX

- Launching and Navigating through the software

- Creating a simple robot program

- Simulating and Debugging robot programs

- Access to the software

- Installation

- More Training Resources

Simulink is a graphical modeling/programming environment with an integrated simulation engine that allows test and verification of your program even before your robot is built. SIMULINK models are being created for many of the basic functions offered through the easyC API. Students will use SIMULINK to interconnect these models to create a program for their robot that can be compiled/downloaded through easyCv4.

Attendees do not need any software or robot hardware in order to participate in this webinar. The only requirement is a computer with speakers.
